Gerwyn Price reigns in Riesa again with 'The Iceman' picking up the International Darts Open for the fourth time and not only back-to-back titles in a happy hunting ground for the Welshman but also on the European Tour after winning last week in Leverkusen.
Price eased past Michael van Gerwen 8-4 in the final who could not withstand the barrage with a 105 average, four 180's and 42.1% on the doubles in victory from the former. The purple patch firmly continues.
Van Gerwen missed 164 on the bull for a hold and Price hit back with a 134 checkout using two double 20’s. Both couldn’t get onto the nine-dart finish but started perfect on Price’s throw but it was a 2-0 lead for ‘The Iceman’.
He missed 116 for a 3-0 lead but Van Gerwen squandered two darts to hold. Only for Price to miss three darts to seal a double break and MVG made it 2-1.
MVG missed the bull with a 124 spurned and Price returned to miss 110 allowing MVG another chance but he was left chasing around the board and the Welshman hit double 20 to make it 3-1.
It was a fourth maximum for MVG but doubles continued to desert him and Price broke again at 4-1. A 76 checkout saw Price consolidate for 5-1.
An 84 checkout on double 11 saw Price go 6-1 up. Price missed 121 for a 7-1 lead and after leaving 42 after nine, he broke back at 6-2.
MVG missed more darts again though but received a reprieve with Price missing darts to go one away. Price finally went one away with a 54 checkout at 7-3.
Price had a leg off and Van Gerwen held at 7-4 and ‘The Iceman’ hit a 56 checkout for the win.

- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024

- I've always thought the top 24 should be made up of major winners and runners up then Euro tour followed by PC tour winners - if you don't have 24 after that then have some qualifiers.Thomas Moffatt03-11-2024
